Produktbeschreibung
When journeying alongside those who are forcibly deprived of housing and shelter, it is rare to find a frontline worker who has been in their position for more than a few years. There is so much exploitation, trauma, and moral injury in this sector that the average rate of "burn-out" is two years. Thanks to the good company around me, I have been able to sustain myself in this work for more than twenty-five years. Along the way, I have paid special attention to those who are most excluded, abandoned, and oppressed by the very systems that claim to care for them. I have critically and collaboratively reflected on my praxis over these years and, in this book, I draw together much of what I have learned so that others can start further ahead than I started.
